Nickelodeon is Getting Its Own Theme Park, Finally!

Spongebob's pineapple under the sea is about to feel really close to home pretty soon, because Nickelodeon is bringing Spongebob and other Nickelodeon faves to life.

Spongebob's new home will be at Nickelodeon Universe, an indoor theme park coming to the New Jersey American Dream shopping and recreation center in 2018, according to CBS Philly.

The 8.5 acre park — which will be the largest indoor theme park in the US — will feature rides and attractions centered around iconic Nickelodeon characters like SpongeBob and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

The theme park is coming to American Dream based on the success of Nickelodeon Universe at the Mall of America in Bloomington, Minnesota. So chances are, the new indoor park is going to look a little something like this:

On top of the Nickelodeon theme park, the 3 million square foot American Dream shopping center will feature more than 450 stores, a 16-story Big Indoor Ski & Snow Park, a 1,500 seat theater, an aquarium, an ice rink, and a miniature golf course.

Basically, Spongebob is going to love his new home. Maybe you'll get to sit next to him and Patrick on the Valentine's Ferris Wheel (because that will have to be a ride, right?).
